Welcome

Our old universe has fallen into impossible chaos and destruction, but the Legendaries will save us; are saving us; have saved us. Soon many lives and memories will fill this new universe, this new world, and give it purpose. (Our site is best viewed in Firefox or Chrome.)

Events

Season

Autumn will be here until December. All of Terrene is cooling by degrees; those in Ashfield scarcely notice because it never truly gets cold there, though they will notice the decreased rains and humidity. Winds pick up, particularly in the southern areas. Ghost types are more common this season.

As you likely all know by now, Jani and I are suckers for a good celebration, so we've got some tasty treats events for you all to enjoy! Nothing too huge, as we don't want to overshadow the plot events or the fair, but we do have a couple of month-long mini-events, and it's definitely enough to get HYPED for. These will all last until November 4th.

Off-screen Gains

Let's get the freebies out of the way, first, shall we? For each month that a given character has been active, you can give +1% loyalty to a Pokemon, +1 EXP to one of their Pokemon, or +5 EXP toward one of their character skills. You must provide a link to a post that was posted IC for that character for each month that you want to claim the reward for. The rewards don't have to all be loyalty or all be EXP, they can be a mixture, and they don't have to all be applied to the same Pokemon, either. These are just small gains to represent the bonding or training that presumably happened off-screen (between threads).

To claim these, post a reply to this thread with one IC post per month, per character, and state which gains you want to claim. Oh, and posts in a character's starter thread do not count.

Terrene Appreciation

As part of this celebration, we want to delve into the things that make Terrene especially unique: specifically, it's lore, NPCs, and customs/stereotypes. To showcase these, we want to see these people or ideas influencing your development topics, social topics, or unmodded adventure topics. If they make a significant contribution to the topic- actually influencing how your characters behave, controlling the story, etc- then they qualify as a Terrene Appreciation (TA) topic. You'll know if they qualify as the mod closing the topic will state so in their closing post. The more TA topics you get, the more rewards you can get!

As a preemptive note, topics that revolve entirely around characters rejecting Terrene's customs/stereotypes will not count. Although it is completely okay for your characters to disagree with certain stereotypes (like stereotyping dark types as no-good demons to be feared or dragon types as practically demigods to be respected and left alone), an entire topic rejecting the customs/stereotypes doesn't qualify as "appreciation."

And as a last note, if want to use an NPC, it has to be an already existing Resident NPC, not and NPC created just for the sake of this Terrene Appreciation event. Family NPCs typically won't count, except for special circumstances, because we don't want your character to just go through an average day and have that count as a TA topic. PM an admin if you think you have a good idea and want to use Family NPCs, though!

The rewards are listed in tiers- as soon as you have the required number of topics, you can claim whichever reward you want from the applicable tier. The rewards aren't spent, meaning they do stack.

Have a character that got a starter through a different Legendary and want to know what they would have gotten from Ho-Oh and the Legendary Dogs? Or, want to know what one of your non-Terrene characters would have gotten as a Terrene starter? Or... want to know what YOU would have gotten as a Terrene starter? Then you'll definitely want to check THIS out!

I'm so bloody happy to be a part of Terrene that I'm practically crying. I honestly love you two guys for being the best admins I've ever seen. (From my forays into probably hundreds of forums, you two def come out on top).
